Man I love Embiid. People need to stop being sensitive, trash talk makes the game more competitive. Along with his troll antics he's definitely my favorite personality in the league

[lildagga]

Man look I’m a laker fan but this dude is bringing a lot of old school back to the nba trash talking, trolling and not only that he backs it up you can’t do nothing but respect that 💯






Still wish kuz woulda finished that dunk on him lol

We need more player like Draymond and Embid take it back to the 80s and 90s with all this trash talk, The NBA is too soft now days with all this friendly shit.Our best player in the world is sending birthday shot outs to rookies smh, I cant wait to Colin Sexton enters the league

It's funny; when the Sixers were "tanking" it was ok for folks and other player to diss Philly...now they are trending up and folks want Embiid & them to be quiet and not talk sh*t back. Embiid took a lot of flack for injuries and his team "tanking"... Get em Embeast!

[minotaurman]

dennid rodman alike pls i love joel!!!! men it has been 20 years since we have this kind of a great solid player

Can't believe people complain about trash talk. Its what the NBA is about. Its competitive and fun to watch. That fire and trash talk is why the 80's and 90's NBA had so much more personality.

[arisart]

"Those soccer players are flopping really hard" lmao

[keonihunter]

Embiid is a beast.. And Mitchell is looking real nice. Dumb refs have to call everything.
